HARTING 09185266321 Rectangular Connector Header - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The HARTING 09185266321 is a through-hole, right-angle rectangular connector header with 26 positions arranged in 2 rows at 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch. This shrouded, 4-wall header connector is designed for board-to-cable/wire applications with solder termination and latch holder fastening. The part is currently active in production with 989 units in stock.

Substitute parts are necessary when the original HARTING component is unavailable, when alternative packaging formats better suit manufacturing requirements, or when design flexibility permits selection from qualified equivalent sources that meet the same electrical and mechanical specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I substitute the HARTING 09185266321 with any of the listed parts without PCB redesign?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts maintain identical mating pitch (0.100" / 2.54mm), position count (26), row configuration (2 rows), and mounting orientation (through-hole right-angle). PCB footprints are directly compatible. Verify fastening mechanism compatibility with your mating connector design, as some substitutes use Push-Pull fastening versus the original Latch Holder design.

Q: What is the difference between Bulk, Tray, and Tube packaging?

A: Packaging format affects manufacturing workflow and component handling. Bulk packaging is loose components suitable for automated pick-and-place systems. Tray packaging organizes components in organized arrays for semi-automated handling. Tube packaging provides individual component protection in sequential tubes, common for manual assembly or lower-volume production. Electrical and mechanical specifications remain identical across packaging formats.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Most substitute parts are RoHS Compliant or ROHS3 Compliant. The TE Connectivity 103310-6 carries "Not applicable" RoHS status and requires compliance verification for your specific application. The HARTING original part is ROHS3 Compliant.

Q: What operating temperature range should I use for design calculations?

A: The HARTING 09185266321 operates from -55°C to 125°C. Most substitute parts operate within -55°C to 105°C or -65°C to 105°C ranges. If your application requires the full -55°C to 125°C range, verify the substitute part's maximum temperature specification. The HARTING original part provides the widest upper temperature limit.

Q: Do contact material differences affect electrical performance?

A: Contact materials (Copper Alloy, Brass, Phosphor Bronze) are all acceptable for standard signal and low-power applications. All parts feature gold-plated mating contacts, which provide consistent contact resistance and corrosion resistance. Material differences primarily affect mechanical durability and cost. For high-current or high-reliability applications, verify the current rating specification of your selected substitute.

Q: Which substitute offers the best inventory availability?

A: The Amphenol ICC 75867-105LF (Quickie™ series) offers the highest inventory at 12,530 units. The 3M N2526-5002-RB provides 6,780 units in Bulk packaging. Both are suitable for high-volume production requirements.

Q: Can I mix and match connector headers from different manufacturers in the same assembly?

A: Yes, provided all parts meet the specified 26-position, 2-row, 0.100" pitch configuration. However, for consistency in manufacturing, testing, and field service, it is standard practice to standardize on a single part number per design revision.
